A tender and stylish blend of road movie and romance, His Motorbike, Her Island is a moving story of love and motorcycles from Japanese pop cinema magician Nobuhiko Obayashi (House). Aimless biker Ko finally finds purpose when he falls in love with Miyo, a young woman with an obsession for motorcycles. When she gets her own bike, Ko worries that her ravenous hunger for the road may lead to dire consequences. The film is shot in an evocative mix of color and black-and-white, and threaded with wistful melancholy.
